Re: When will 13.04 be launched?

True 13.04 has a shorter support span...however, 13.04 practically leaves 12.04 in the dust in terms of speed, stability, and various improvements...it's that good...and worth even the shorter support cycle...
It also "blows away" 12.10 as well

Re: When will 13.04 be launched?

^ especially in xubuntu, 12.04 was a letdown for xubuntu imo, 12.10 made me happy and 13.04 is good, but it has a couple out of the box issues
Printers are no longer auto installed/configured, you have to do it manually, that was a cool feature that seems to now work anymore
the stock 3.8.0-19-generic has issues with nvidia (fails to boot from time to time, and lacks HDMI audio) the mainline kernel is good, as long as you can get the -19 to boot so you can install the mainline kernel [mainline kernel update checker/installer]

We'll have to wait and see the inevitable threads demanding Canonical extend support for raring.

It's *that* faster? On every install of Ubuntu, I get bugs for a while. Disabling the error report make things look a little better (When the error report randomly pop at you when there is an error that the user does not experience..).
